    ‘65 Rollfast - final pic’s

    The Rollfast is sweet. Clean it up just enough, (safe & reliable) and put updated mtn.bike components on it, run some smooth skins on it. Just putting a little spin on the traditional look of the classic. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Chopping a Frame

    Yes, I'm rolling with the curved tube. The welding service's fee would have been $750 to make the cuts and weld. Good service isn't cheap but I can't justify that cost. You shared a 29" wheel would require about 1.5" of stay removal. Would it be logical to assume it would lower the ... end 1.5"...

    Chopping a Frame

    The welding will be done by a professional. Thank you for the 411 on the shortening of the stays. At this time I'm not able to locate a 29"/700 with the width I need. I'm not looking to do this on the cheap, but I don't want to put too much $$$ into it either. I could forgo the taking of the...

    I'm good with that. I have perused the site on my mobile and it seems like it is geared to a desk top application. Thanks.

    My First

    Here's my first bike for the purposes of this forum. It maybe a Firmstrong IDK but I got it from a neighbor. This is day one, rotted tires, obvious signs of neglect. The next two are after a little elbow grease fresh skins, new neck bearings. I went ahead and swapped seats with my MB since I'm...

    Parts

    I see how members have changed different components on their bikes. I didn't think that you could change the sproket and peddle on say a Genesis 32. Being new I have a lot to learn.

    I came upon this site while looking for parts to a Genesis 32". When I read the enthusiasm in the message I had to see what this forum was about.
